Mohammadali Shahbaz (born August 1995, Tehran, Iran) is a German-Iranian entrepreneur, strategic advisor, and founder of several high-impact ventures at the intersection of luxury, innovation, and global policy.
Raised in a family where excellence and tradition were paramount, Shahbaz attended the historic Alborz High School a college-preparatory institution located in the heart of Tehran. Founded as one of the first modern high schools in Asia and the Middle East, Alborz played a formative role in shaping Iran’s intellectual elite. Often compared to Eton College in England and top U.S. institutions like Phillips Academy and Phillips Exeter, its rigorous academic environment left a lasting imprint on Shahbaz’s early development.
At 23, he launched his first company, Detox Culture, Germany’s pioneering science-backed corporate health firm. The venture integrated the four pillars of physical and mental wellbeing and quickly became a benchmark in evidence-based wellness solutions across Europe.
Driven by a passion for branding and legacy, Shahbaz moved to London to study Strategic Brand Management at London Business School. There, he laid the foundation for his next venture—The Mister Legacy—an innovative hyper-luxury brand headquartered in Berkeley Square, Mayfair. Designed as a homage to Clayton Christensen’s theory of disruptive innovation, the brand fuses timeless elegance with forward-thinking strategy.
Furthering his commitment to strategic excellence, Shahbaz pursued advanced coursework at Harvard Business School, deepening his expertise in global strategy. He also completed Harvard Law School’s distinguished Program on Negotiation and earned his professional lobbying certification from NILE, the United States’ most prestigious institute for ethical lobbying.
Shahbaz is an active member of the American Chamber of Commerce (AmCham) and the Council of Public Affairs, where he advises and negotiates on matters involving both the U.S. and German governments. His work bridges the realms of diplomacy, luxury, and innovation—crafting a legacy that transcends industries and borders.
